Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically to a cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioning condensate. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional air conditioners typically use air cooling, which consumes a significant amount of energy to power the fan. In extremely hot weather, air cooling is ineffective, causing the air conditioner to frequently trip due to high temperature, resulting in poor indoor cooling performance.

[0003] Currently, some large air conditioning systems are specially designed with devices that use domestic water (such as tap water) for heat dissipation. These devices guide tap water to the vicinity of the condenser through pipes, and spray the tap water onto the condenser surface using nozzles to achieve heat dissipation and cooling. However, this method is actually relatively inefficient for heat dissipation and cooling.

[0004] However, using tap water to cool air conditioners is a huge waste of water resources. Furthermore, existing tap water cooling devices cannot adjust the tap water temperature in winter to heat up the air conditioner for defrosting and snow removal. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a novel air conditioning cooling device that utilizes the condensate produced during air conditioner operation to cool or heat the air conditioner, conserving water resources while providing cooling, defrosting, and snow removal in extreme weather conditions (too cold or too hot).

Detailed Implementation

[0041] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0042] This application provides a cooling and heating device for secondary recycling of air conditioning condensate, which solves the problems of water waste and limited functionality in existing air conditioning condensate secondary recycling devices, and achieves the goal of making full use of air conditioning condensate under different ambient temperatures.

[0043] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and the general idea is as follows:

[0044] Current technologies for recycling air conditioner condensate water are limited to spraying it onto the condenser surface to assist in heat dissipation and cooling. However, the condensate water is often wasted after this cooling process, resulting in significant water resource loss. Furthermore, existing technologies only utilize condensate water for condenser cooling. In cold winters, when the outdoor unit's surface is frosted or covered in snow due to low ambient temperatures, hindering heat dissipation, there is currently no technology to use condensate water for defrosting and snow removal. To address these issues, the proposed solution cools (or heats) the condensate water when the ambient temperature is high (or low). This water is then applied to the outdoor unit's aluminum foil heat dissipation fins via spraying or penetration to achieve cooling (or defrosting). Simultaneously, a circulating return water pipe recycles the condensate water used for cooling or defrosting, continuously reusing it for the aforementioned cooling or defrosting processes. The technical solution of this application utilizes the condensate generated by the air conditioner itself, improves the efficiency of air conditioner condensate recycling, saves water resources, and enables the use of condensate in multiple scenarios such as high temperature or cold weather, enriches the function of condensate recycling, and extends the service life of the air conditioner.

[0045] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0046] See appendix Figure 1-6 The present application proposes a cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioning condensate, which includes: a recovery water storage tank 1, a water pump 2, a controller 3, and a condensate circulation pipeline 4.

[0047] The condensate circulation pipeline 4 includes an inlet pipe 41 and a circulation return pipe 42. The inlet end of the inlet pipe 41 is connected to the recovery storage tank 1 via a water pump 2, and the outlet end of the inlet pipe 41 is connected to a cooling and heating component 5 used to cool or heat the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner. The inlet end of the circulation return pipe 42 is connected to a water collector 6, which is used to collect the condensate after cooling or heating the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner. The outlet end of the circulation return pipe 42 is connected to the recovery storage tank 1, so that the condensate after cooling or heating the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner is returned to the recovery storage tank 1.

[0048] The water recovery tank 1 is connected to the condensate recovery device in the air conditioner, specifically to the air conditioner condensate recovery pipe, for collecting and storing the condensate generated during air conditioner operation. The water pump 2 is used to draw the condensate from the water recovery tank 1 into the inlet pipe 41. The controller 3 is electrically connected to the water pump 2 and the power supply, for controlling the start and stop of the water pump 2.

[0049] The cooling and heating component 5 is used to cool or defrost the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner by using cooling / heating condensate water, depending on the ambient temperature of the outdoor unit 8.

[0050] In one embodiment of this application, to protect the aforementioned components such as the water pump 2 and controller 3, a preferred method is that the cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioning condensate water further includes a housing 7, in which the aforementioned recovery water storage tank 1, water pump 2, controller 3, and other components are reasonably distributed and installed. Preferably, the condensate water circulation pipe 4 extends to the outside of the housing 7 through a through-hole and connects to the corresponding pipe of the cooling and heating component 5.

[0051] The cooling and heating component 5 is installed on the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner and is used to dissipate heat and cool down the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins on the outdoor unit 8 or to defrost and remove snow. In the technical solution of this application, the specific form and installation method of the cooling and heating component 5 are not limited. It can be a copper pipe 51 for delivering condensate, a permeator 52, a spray head 53, a drip cooling pipe 54, an atomizer (not shown in the figure), etc. Other components or structures based on the principle of water cooling and using condensate to cool or heat the outdoor unit 8 are also within the protection scope of this application.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the cooling and heating component 5 is a copper pipe 51 for delivering condensate, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, several of the aforementioned condensate delivery copper pipes 51 are fitted into the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins of the outdoor unit 8 of the air conditioner. The outlet end of the inlet pipe 41 is connected to the inlet end of all the condensate delivery copper pipes 51, and the inlet end of the circulating return pipe 42 is connected to the water collector 6 connected to the outlet ends of all the condensate delivery copper pipes 51. After being cooled / heated, the condensate is pressurized by the water pump 2 and enters the condensate delivery copper pipes 51 through the inlet pipe 41. Then, it flows out from the outlet of the condensate delivery copper pipes 51 and enters the water collector 6, then enters the circulating return pipe 42, and finally flows back to the recovery storage tank 1. In this process, the cooled / heated condensate will carry away the heat from the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins or raise the temperature of the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins, thereby achieving cooling and heat dissipation or defrosting and snow removal of the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins.

[0053] Furthermore, for ease of installation, the condensate delivery copper pipe 51 is a single, continuously bent "U"-shaped pipe, and it is evenly interspersed within the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins. The outlet end of the condensate delivery copper pipe 51 is connected to the water collector 6.

[0054] Furthermore, when the cooling and heating component 5 uses the condensate delivery copper pipe 51, the outlet end of the condensate delivery copper pipe 51 can be integrated with the water collector 6, or the water collector 6 can be omitted directly, and the condensate flowing out of the outlet of the condensate delivery copper pipe 51 can be directly connected to the circulating return water pipe 42 and returned to the recovery storage tank 1.

[0055] In another embodiment, the aforementioned cooling and heating component 5 is a permeator 52, such as... Figure 2 As shown. Several of these permeators 52 will be installed and fixed to the upper end of the aluminum foil heat sink fins, or clipped onto the edge of the outdoor unit, positioned directly above the aluminum foil heat sink fins. The outlet end of the inlet pipe 41 connects to the inlet end of all permeators 52. For a detailed description of the structure of the permeator 52, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 The system includes a water inlet, a stainless steel baffle, and a water-absorbing sponge fixedly attached to the bottom of the stainless steel baffle. After cooling / heating, the condensate is pressurized by water pump 2 and enters the permeator 52 through the inlet pipe 41. It then slowly seeps out and flows onto the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins, carrying away heat or raising their temperature, thus achieving cooling / defrosting and snow removal. The condensate after cooling / heating flows along the fins into the water collector 6, and then back to the recovery storage tank 1 through the circulation return pipe 42 connected to the water collector 6. In actual installation, the water collector 6 is generally positioned higher than the circulation return pipe 42 to facilitate the return of used condensate to the recovery storage tank 1.

[0056] In another embodiment, the aforementioned cooling and heating component 5 is a spray head 53, and the specific structure of the spray head 53 is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, several spray heads 53 are positioned at different locations around the aluminum foil heat sink fins via a bracket. The outlet of the inlet pipe 41 is connected to all spray heads 53, and the inlet of the circulating return pipe 42 is connected to a water collector 6 located below the aluminum foil heat sink fins to collect the condensate after spraying. The cooled / heated condensate is pressurized by the water pump 2 and enters the spray heads 53 through the inlet pipe 41. The spray heads 53 then spray the condensate to cool / heat the aluminum foil heat sink fins. The cooled / heated condensate flows along the aluminum foil heat sink fins into the water collector 6, and then returns to the recovery storage tank 1 through the circulating return pipe 42 connected to the water collector 6. During this process, the cooled / heated condensate sprayed onto the aluminum foil heat sink fins carries away heat or raises the temperature of the aluminum foil heat sink fins, thus achieving cooling / defrosting and snow removal of the aluminum foil heat sink fins.

[0057] In other embodiments, the cooling and heating component 5 can also be a drip cooling pipe 54 or an atomizer, etc. When the cooling and heating component 5 is a drip cooling pipe 54, its specific installation method and its specific connection method with the condensate circulation pipe 4 can refer to the implementation method when the cooling and heating component 5 is a permeator 52, and will not be repeated here. Figure 5 As shown. When the cooling and heating component 5 is an atomizer (not shown in the figure), its specific installation method and connection method with the condensate circulation pipe 4 can be referred to the implementation method when the cooling and heating component 5 is a spray head 53, and will not be repeated here.

[0058] Furthermore, to further improve the cooling / defrosting / snow removal effect of the aluminum foil heat dissipation fins, in specific implementations, the cooling and heating component 5 can also be any combination of multiple components such as the condensate delivery copper pipe 51, permeator 52, spray head 53, drip cooling pipe 54, and atomizer. That is, two, three, or more cooling and heating components 5 can be selected simultaneously for combination to improve the cooling / defrosting / snow removal effect. When the cooling and heating component 5 is in multiple combinations, the specific installation method and pipe connection method described above can be referred to.

[0059] Since the temperature of the condensate may not be at a suitable cooling or heating temperature, in order to improve the efficiency of cooling or defrosting / snow removal of the outdoor unit 8, in one embodiment, the cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioner condensate proposed in this application further includes a temperature control component 9. This temperature control component 9 is used to adjust the temperature (i.e., cool or heat) of the condensate in the recovery water tank 1. The temperature control component 9 is electrically connected to the controller 3 via a temperature controller 13, and the operating state of the temperature control component 9 is controlled by controlling the current flow. The temperature control component 9 includes a heater, which is located at the bottom of the recovery water tank 1. Preferably, the heater is a heating wire, heating rod, or heating element, etc.

[0060] In any of the above embodiments, controller 3 is selected as an intelligent spray atomizing controller, model S-2000. This controller 3 has a built-in transformer, which can be used for voltage transformation as needed. The circuit diagram of the control system for the cooling and heating device used for secondary recovery of air conditioning condensate in the above embodiments for cooling and heat dissipation or heating for defrosting and snow removal is shown below. Figure 7 As shown.

[0061] In actual operation, after the air conditioning unit is turned on, the outdoor unit 8 starts working, and only then is it necessary to cool or heat the outdoor unit for defrosting or snow removal. Furthermore, if the ambient temperature of the outdoor unit 8 is suitable, there is no need to cool or heat the outdoor unit. To save energy, in a preferred embodiment, such as... Figure 6As shown, the aforementioned air conditioner condensate secondary recovery cooling and heating device also includes a main unit operating condition monitoring module 10. This module 10 is electrically connected to the controller 3. The main unit operating condition monitoring module 10 feeds back the monitored main unit operating condition data to the controller 3, which then sends a signal to control the operating status of the temperature control component 9. The main unit operating condition monitoring module 10 includes a main unit start / stop monitoring unit and an outdoor unit temperature detection unit. The main unit start / stop monitoring unit monitors the operating status of the air conditioner main unit, i.e., its start and stop, while the outdoor unit temperature detection unit monitors the ambient temperature of the outdoor unit. Both the main unit start / stop monitoring unit and the outdoor unit temperature detection unit are electrically connected to the controller 3. Specifically, the main unit start / stop monitoring unit includes a current transformer (M3050) for sensing the start and stop of the air conditioner compressor; the outdoor unit temperature detection unit includes a temperature sensor for monitoring the ambient temperature. It is electrically connected to the temperature controller 13. The specific model of the temperature sensor is not limited here, as long as it can perform the temperature detection function.

[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the recycled water tank 1 is also equipped with a water level sensor 11 and a drain valve 12. Both the water level sensor 11 and the drain valve 12 are connected to the controller 3. When the water level in the tank rises above the preset maximum water level in the recycled water tank 1, a drain signal is activated, opening the drain valve 12 to discharge excess condensate from the tank, preventing excessive condensate overflow from damaging the air conditioning unit. Specifically, the water level sensor 11 is preferably a water tank level gauge.

[0063] Furthermore, to prevent the temperature control component 9 from continuing to work and damaging the recycling water tank 1 and other related equipment when the water level in the recycling water tank 1 is too low, a dry-burn protection level gauge 14 is also installed in the recycling water tank 1, which is electrically connected to the controller 3.

[0064] The working principle of the cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioning condensate in this application is as follows:

[0065] 1) In summer, when the ambient temperature of the air conditioner unit is high and the evaporator needs to be cooled:

[0066] After the air conditioner is started, the current transformer senses the start of the air conditioner compressor and sends a signal to the main power relay KA. The condensate recovery device in the air conditioner starts to collect condensate. When the condensate in the water tank reaches the preset height, the controller 3 controls the built-in circulating water pump 2 to start running, extracting condensate and transporting it through the water inlet pipe 41 to the inlet of the cooling and heating components 5 (e.g., condensate delivery copper pipe 51, permeator 52, spray head 53, drip cooling pipe 54, atomizer, etc.) to circulate heat dissipation and cool the heat dissipation fins of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0067] After the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is turned off, the current transformer sends a power-off signal, the main power relay KA is de-energized, cutting off the main power supply to the condensate recovery device. The condensate recovery device stops working, the equipment stops running, and at the same time, water pump 2 stops working. The condensate, having carried away the heat from the evaporator, enters the circulating return water pipe 42 and returns to the recovery storage tank 1.

[0068] The heating rod built into the water storage tank 1 is controlled by a thermostat. Since the ambient temperature detected by the thermostat is always higher than 10 degrees Celsius in summer (the set temperature value of the thermostat is 10 degrees Celsius), the thermostat is always in the off state, and the electric heating rod is always in the off state.

[0069] 2) In winter, when the ambient temperature of the air conditioning unit is low and the evaporator needs to be heated to defrost and remove snow:

[0070] After the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is started, the current transformer detects that the air conditioner unit has started and sends a signal to the main power relay KA, connecting the circuit power. The built-in switching power supply of the condensing unit outputs 12V DC voltage and current. When the water level in the detected recovery water tank 1 reaches the preset value, the electric heating rod starts to heat the condensate. After the water tank temperature monitor detects that the condensate has been heated to the maximum temperature of 50 degrees Celsius (the preset heating temperature is 50 degrees Celsius), the electric heating rod is de-energized, and the water pump 2 starts to start the heat circulation, drawing the heated condensate and transporting it through the water inlet pipe 41 to the water inlet of the cooling and heating component 5 to heat the heat dissipation fins of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner for defrosting and snow removal.

[0071] In addition, when the water level sensor 11 detects that the water level in the water tank has risen above the preset maximum value of the water level in the recovery storage tank 1, a drainage signal is activated, the drain valve 12 opens, and the excess condensate in the water tank is discharged.

[0072] In summary, compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0073] 1. This application discloses a cooling and heating device for secondary recovery of air conditioner condensate, comprising: a recovery water storage tank, a water pump, a controller, and a condensate circulation pipeline. The condensate circulation pipeline includes an inlet pipe and a return pipe. The inlet end of the inlet pipe is connected to the recovery water storage tank via the water pump, and the outlet end of the inlet pipe is connected to a cooling and heating component for cooling or heating the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The inlet end of the return pipe is connected to a water collector for collecting the condensate after cooling or heating the outdoor unit, and the outlet end of the return pipe is connected to the recovery water storage tank. The water pump is electrically connected to the controller. This air conditioner condensate secondary recovery cooling and heating device cleverly utilizes the condensate generated by the air conditioner itself, and recovers and reuses the condensate more times, saving water resources. Simultaneously, it can selectively cool / heat the condensate according to the outdoor environment to achieve cooling / defrosting / snow removal for the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, enriching the condensate recycling function.

[0074] 2. The cooling and heating component of the air conditioning condensate secondary recovery device proposed in this application can be selected as one or a combination of multiple of the following: condensate delivery copper pipe, permeator, spray head, drip cooling pipe, and atomizer. It can be reasonably set according to actual needs and has better flexibility.

[0075] 3. The cooling and heating component of the air conditioner condensate secondary recovery device proposed in this application uses the main unit operating condition monitoring module to link the start-up and shutdown of the main unit, the ambient temperature of the main unit, and the recycling of condensate, which is more scientific and reasonable, not only saving energy, but also improving the service life of the air conditioner.
